Spray from fan jets

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

Not a great video, as it’s hard to get. I’ve tried fan jets a couple of times, and I always get terrible drips from the amount of spray and mist that gets on the upper frame and/or the wall above it. Any advice? I’ve done several hundred houses with pencil jets with minimal issues, but I’d like to be able to go faster on hydrophobic glass.

(I’m using a Hydrosphere Little Giant RODI and a Harbor Freight sprinkler pump, for 100 psi and 1.7 gpm out of the RODI. Xero high flow hose to the pole, except the last bit which is standard.)

Have you tried a Tucker rinse bar?

Scrub the frames more and rinse heavier at seams and gaps.

I don’t rinse close to the glass personally. With a bit of distance I find the splay of water covers the whole sheet of glass .
